52 runs to win, 9 wickets in hand

Looks like Vic may beat Qld, if not it'll be a draw Both results favour SA.

It's well within the rules, they saught an experienced player who could captain the side to better 4 day form, I have no issues that he's a saffa

Only just got there in the end. 94/6 but a win is a win.

who asked whether you had any issues? thats well established
i'm simply highlighting how far and wide this redbacks team had to go just to remain competitive given there is so little talent in South Australia and what does exists is prone to choking

This has a little relevance, because it's about developing.

KoK talked about what clubs have produced the most Test Cricketers.

Kerry O'Keeffe ‏@kokeeffe49
Baggy green podium=
1. Western Suburbs dcc Sydney
2. South Melbourne dcc Melbourne
3. St George dcc Sydney
4 Glenelg dcc Adelaide


So, it shows that Glenelg can pump out good players. Should be a feeder team to the Redbacks more.

Probably like Dehli United, in India. They haven't produced ANY Australian players.



I don't understand your question.

who was the last Glenelg player that played tests for Australia?

It's not about playing for Australia, it's about the Redbacks.

Notice the last line... I'm suggesting Glenelg produces players for the Redbacks. Not the Test side. So the last Test player is irrelevant.
